The Patriot Tuna Spike is a handmade ike jime brain spike with a Calcutta bamboo handle in the Patriot colorway (Red/White/Blue). Red, white and blue, for anglers who like to fly the flag on every trip.

A quick, accurate spike to the brain stops a tuna from thrashing on deck. That means less bruising, less lactic acid build-up and better-tasting fish. It's the first step of the Japanese ike jime method, and one of the easiest ways to improve the quality of your catch. Learn more in what is a tuna spike and when to use it.

Features

  • 316 stainless steel spike, marine-grade and built for saltwater.
  • Calcutta bamboo handle that's light, grippy when wet and naturally buoyant.
  • Optional screw-on sheath to protect the point (and you) when it's riding in a bag or on a belt.

Choose your spike size

  • 1/4" diameter × 4" length: yellowtail, bonito, dorado and school-size tuna.
  • 5/16" diameter × 4.5" length: the all-around size for yellowfin and bluefin.
  • 3/8" diameter × 5" length: larger tuna and other big, thick-skulled fish.

Made to order. Standard items ship in about 5–7 business days, and custom orders take 8–12 business days because the wrap graphics are printed for your build. Need it sooner? Call (818) 918-8374 to ask what's ready to ship.

Pair it with the matching Patriot Calcutta gaff, or build a one-off with the Custom Tuna Spike Builder.
